Questions and Answers

What is a key feature of the transformer architecture?

  • It employs an attention mechanism to process input in parallel. (correct)
  • It processes input sequentially.
  • It uses a recurrent mechanism to model data.
  • It is designed primarily for short-range dependencies.

In which areas has the transformer architecture been noted to achieve state-of-the-art performance?

  • Both vision and NLP applications. (correct)
  • In none of the machine learning applications.
  • Primarily in image processing tasks.
  • Only in natural language processing (NLP).

How does the transformer handle dependencies in data?

  • By relying on convolutional layers for processing.
  • Through its attention mechanism, excelling in long-range dependencies. (correct)
  • It is ineffective for long-range dependencies.
  • By utilizing a stacking method for inputs.

A way for a neural network to focus on different parts of an input sequence when processing it.

Parallel processing

Processing different parts of an input sequence at the same time.

Long-range dependency

The ability to understand relationships between elements that are far apart in a sequence.
